IMPORTANT
It is very important that a strict water management program is followed to ensure trouble free boiler operation.
The following are recommended for feedwater and for boiler water
FEEDWATER (water entering boiler)
pH Value
8.5 to 9.5 tested at room temperature.
Hardness
Less than 2.0 ppm in the form of CaCO
3
.
Suspended Solids
None
Chloride
Less than 50 ppm.
Organic Matter
Less than 5 ppm.
Oil
None
Minimum Temperature
85
°
C
BOILER WATER (water inside boiler)
pH Value
10.0 to 12.0 tested at room temperature.
Hardness
Not detectable.
Suspended Solids
Less than 100 ppm.
Chloride
Less than 500 ppm.
Oxygen Scavenger, Sodium Sulphite
30 to 70 ppm.
Tannin
30 to 70 ppm
Phosphate
30 to 70 ppm, in the form of PO
4
.
Total Alkalinity
Less than 1000 ppm.
Caustic Alkalinity
Minimum 300 ppm as CaCO
3
.
Total Dissolved Solids (TDS)
Less than 2000 ppm.
Iron
Less than 1 ppm.
Silica
Less than 150 ppm, in the form of SiO
2
.
Dissolved Oxygen
None
!
KEY
mg/kg
= Milligrams per Kilogram
CaCO
3
= Calcium Carbonate
PO
4
= Phosphate
SiO
2
= Silicon Dioxide
PPM
= Parts Per Million
1 Grain hardness
= 17.118 ppm
therefore 70 ppm
= 4.10 grains hardness
For practical
purposes ppm
= mg/kg
It is critical that the boiler water pH be
alkaline in the range 10.0 - 12.0.
Daily boiler blowdown is essential to
help prevent formation of deposits
and reduce Total Dissolved Solids
(TDS).
Consult your water treatment specialist
to establish the frequency and duration
of blowdown required to achieve the
required conditions.
